Ok that's a pretty cool project

I'm getting a 404 in Sync

Ja tozhe

There is no visceral reaction from the operator

Now that is what you call embracing your age

'Just a little bit!'

Flick them to test they aren't fake

Oh, I should also mention the college brochures are full of lies.

Very good point. They sure know how to sell a vision

At 20, something I didn't realise is that you're not supposed to "get rich". I feel like culture sells the idea that we're all supposed to be Steve Jobs or Elon Musk or something

Thanks, this is very valuable (the rest of your comment as well). Youre right, i guess they got to where they are by just going with the flow given their situation, but if they'd done the same things in another person's shoes (or even just if different coincidences had happened), theyd likely have ended up with a more medicore life.

Agreed, good tip. Yeah his persective is certainly valuable

That must be nice, it's my plan too tbh if it still manages to pay the bills. I agree it's important to have a sense of Enough.

You have a point, I guess I forgot to consider Playing The Game. And yeah, investing something off the side does sound like a good idea.

Obviously ripoffs are the best money makers :-) But I'm not that kinda guy

Mmm yess this is my plan

I guess to you right now it doesn't seem like much, but someone who makes three times more money than someone else is significantly more well off.

Oh I see. Ok I'll keep that in mind.

I see, it's useful for me to know that it will work like this.

There's also benefits to being closer to money to show value

Ah that's a good tip actually

Meeting people pays the best dividends in life.

Mmm well said. That makes sense

You are falling into a trap a lot of young, smart people do. You are assuming that knowledge and intelligence is what you need to succeed.

Thank you for telling me this

IT and cybersecurity also fit this bill, though they do tend to follow your graph.

You're right! These kinds of jobs were the ones I was initially looking at (the cliche that engineers make good money is true but you're right, the diminishing returns do start to kick in)

Oh I see, I will keep this in mind. Yeah I suspected that any jobs that got you super good money were not because of the knowledge but because of playing the game/luck.
